Eighteen year old ethnic Chinese Singapore resident detained under the Internal Security Act - he was radicalized online, his underlying fear was the increasing Malaysian population crowding out the Chinese. They’ve also caught a local 56 year old housewife, and a 34 year old Malaysian, who they simply sent home. Both of them were Muslim and the world’s inaction in the face of Israel’s war crimes in Gaza was the driving factor there.
Two other minor teens also fell into right wing radicalization, one against Muslims, the other identifying as a white supremacist, who fantasized about conducting a mass shooting in the U.S. in the future. Brenton Tarrant’s 2019 Christchurch mosque shootings are an overriding influence.
That mass shooter’s content was on Kiwi Farms, and Josh Moon provided a typically slimy response to a takedown request. I most recently mentioned that polarization entrepreneur in 764 Criminal Enterprise Child Sextortion.
If society tolerates festering shitholes like Kiwi Farms, under the guise of free speech absolutism, we should absolutely expect that boys in their formative years are going to end up influenced by them. Young men are wired to find trouble as they become independent, that period between full brain weight at age twelve and the end of teen rewiring at twenty five is the danger zone. There’s a reason that two thirds of all mammoth fossils are bachelor teen males, and our species is subject to the same biological drivers.
One hopes the RICO action against 764, AGC, The Com, and other things lurking in the “chan culture” cesspools will start to tamp down such troubles, but it seems dangerously late in the game for us to FINALLY start paying attention.
